Synopsis
It has been fifty-five years since the angels of the Apocalyptic War attempted to wipe out humanity. Now a new nation has been built where alchemy is forbidden, and angels fear for their lives as they hide among the mortals.
The city’s leaders share one view on the ancestors of angels: shoot first, no questions.
When her twin brother falls into a strange coma, sixteen-year-old Chela Prizeon vows to discover her role among these exiles, the royal angels known as the Lost Immortals.
Chela’s only hope lies with the mysterious, but infuriating leader of a rebel group. But can she trust this boy, someone who can control her dreams and her heart.
Escape into a world filled with celestial creatures, fascinating villainy, high-stake choices, and forbidden romance.

My Thoughts
The
Lost Immortals: When Copper Sun Falls was written in a futuristic
world, 2067, where a group of angels are at war. The Caduceans (good
angels) are trying to save the human race from the Tainteds (bad
angels), who are trying to take over after the Great War, 55 years ago.
The story started really strong and captivating. It drew me right in.
However, there were parts in which I had to read multiple times due to
confusion. I think there were too many characters to try to keep up with
and sometimes I found that there wasn't really a lot of tie in to the
next paragraph or chapter. There were also some parts in the middle
that was a bit drawn out. I did enjoy reading about the main character
and her connection between both "worlds" of angel-bloods. I also enjoyed
watching her powers develop. There were a lot of questions left
unanswered that I felt could have been addressed or discussed at some
point during the book.
Overall, I thought the premise behind the story was good. Very different from other paranormal stories I have read.
